Did you notice that my name isn’t the only signature on this poem? I’m proud to share ownership of this piece with my mom. It was a collaboration not without frustration. We’re different writers. I like sentences. She likes stand alone images. I like verbs. She likes describing words. But somehow it worked and in the end I think we both learned something. Thanks mom, for sharing your wisdom and treating us all to your poetic beauty.
Smile, it’s Tuesday.

Kudos to you and your mom on this evocative collaboration. Great sentences and verbs and imagery and descriptions. Hope it’s not the last of your co-creations.
I hope not either! Thank you so much!
beautifully done!
Thank you!!
Although you write different styles, you managed a beautiful post here.
Hopefully you will get through even ore frustrations soon and write more together. Bonding is a lovely thing.
Thank you! It was a great experience so I’m sure we will collaborate again!!
